YEAR 5 MUSIC 14th April


VOCAL WORK


This week I would like you to look at a new song about Covid health and safety.

THE CORONAVIRUS KIDS SONG



If you are able to perform the song with actions then consider posting a video to SeeSaw. Make sure we can hear your voice!

Don’t forget to continue learning ‘The Ballad of Magellan’ and ‘We will rock you!’ a Stone Age Song with vocals.




LISTENING TASK

Four Seasons - Summer: 1st Movement

Antonio Vivaldi composed the Four Seasons to represent, through several elements of music, various aspects of each of the seasons Spring, Summer, Autumn Winter.

Follow the video commentary as you listen to see what Vivaldi is trying to describe through music. 

This is another movement (in classical music, each separate track is usually called a movement) from Vivaldi’s ‘Four Seasons’. It is another example of program music – instrumental music that tries to evokes a mood, a place, or a story.


CREATE YOUR OWN STRINGED INSTRUMENT

Do you have an empty tissue box or shoe box? Rubber bands? If you do you can try creating your own stringed instrument. (The pdf expains the task in more detail.) Can you join in with Vivaldi and create a Four Seasons remix? If so, post to Seesaw.
